Description of ProgramThe Department of Modern Languages and Literatures offers graduate degrees with specializations in French, German and Spanish. The program allows for combining survey courses in literature, specialized seminars, interdisciplinary or supportive work in other fields, languages, and research. As a department housing many languages, it is possible for graduate students to teach in more than one language and to do significant advanced study in the literature of a second foreign language which may lead to a minor in a second language at the M.A. level or a Ph.D. dissertation with a multinational focus.
